5 Stars, but with an asterisk for us not-very-tech-savvy Mac users
Okay. First, this webcam does all that they say it does. Buy it! That being said, however, if you're a not-very-techie 70-something like I am, you might discover that it doesn't work when you first plug it into your Mac. And then, when you go to the Logitech website, you find downloads for Windows software to run the thing, but nothing for Mac. And then when you read the product literature, you find that it does actually sort of say that it'll work with a Mac, but when you call the Logitech number for Support, you speak with some guy in God-knows-where who tells you that, sadly, the Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920 isn't wired to work with a Mac, so, sorry to say, you shouldn't have bought this one. So then you're faced with returning the camera to Amazon and resuming the search for a suitable webcam. Until, that is, you discover the YouTube video by the guy who says that you actually need only to go to the app for which you bought the webcam in the first place -- Skype, in my case -- go to Preferences, click on Audio/Video, and select the HD Pro C920, which will appear in the drop-down menu. I tried it and, sure enough, it works. Good thing I stuck with it for a few days and didn't immediately ship the webcam back. NOW the furshlugginer thing is worth 5 Stars.
